Inflamed by American Prophecy, Brazilian Evangelicals Want a Woman for Brazil Presidency

By Julio Severo

The most important events for Brazil in 2014 are the World Cup — where the Brazilian team suffered its worst and most shameful defeat in such football event — and the presidential election.

Prophecy said Brazil would win the World Cup

From a rational standpoint, the election will bring another shameful defeat, because the main contenders — incumbent Dilma Rousseff and Marina Silva and Aécio Neves — are socialists. This week, these three major candidates have, joined by homosexual activists and federal prosecutors, condemned and attacked Levy Fidelix, a Catholic candidate with minimal chance to win the election. Fidelix was accused of “homophobia” after defending that homosexual relations are dirty and that a homosexual couple is never a family.

Yet, Brazilian evangelicals, stirred up by a prophecy of an American minister, have massively backed Marina Silva for president. In a tour of conferences in Brazil in 2011, Bob Hazlett prophesied:

“I heard the Lord say that even in the next two years ‘I will begin to raise up women in power in this nation and I am going to put a woman with the Spirit of God within her, who will kneel before Me, like Esther knelt before the king, because I am removing the Mordecai spirit that tries to controls the women in this nation and I am going to raise up a woman after My heart and I am going to shake this nation, but I am going to lead this nation to a season of prosperity even though other nations are in crisis. I am going to release Christ in this nation.’”

This prophecy made headlines in August in GospelPrime and GospelMais, the two main Protestant websites in Brazil, after a mysterious plane crash killed Brazilian presidential candidate Eduardo Campos, of the Brazilian Socialist Party. Marina was his vice and, with his death, she became the presidential candidate of the Brazilian Socialist Party.

In this point, Marina grabbed international headlines too, including in Reuters and Associated Press.

According to investigative journalist Wayne Madsen, the plane crash was an operation of the Obama CIA to help Marina get the presidential candidacy.

The Obama opposition to incumbent Dilma Rousseff is explained by the fact that she is a socialist who is anti-U.S. economic interests. For example, in her administration Brazil is a member of BRICS, which wants to de-dollarize trade affairs, which would potentially be a disaster for the U.S. economy. In contrast, Marina Silva — who, according to Madsen, is a George Soros puppet —, is a socialist who is pro-U.S. economic interests.

Apparently, these socialist differences affect only economic issues, because the U.S. gave full support to a Brazil-sponsored homosexual resolution approved in the U.N. last week.

I am sure that God can see these and many other political maneuvers by anti-U.S. or pro-U.S. socialists. But many Brazilian evangelicals are backing Marina because they are blindly following Bob Hazlett’s prophecy.

I want in no way to disqualify the life and ministry of Hazlett. But, whether in his case or other cases, the Apostle Paul explains that Christians are free to prophesy in a meeting, and everyone else should evaluate whether a prophetic message is correct or not (see 1 Corinthians 14:29).

So Christians are instructed by God to evaluate prophecies made by other Christians.

The World Cup and the presidential election are the two main subjects for Brazilians in 2014, and Hazlett’s prophecies addressed both subjects. What did he prophesy about the World Cup?

He said in 2011,

“The Spirit of the Lord says: Four years from now, I will bring back the World Cup to this nation and I will anoint this nation to fill the Cup of prayer and pour out to the world, for the day when the Brazil team holds the World Cup, will be the day that I begin a revival that will cause Brazil bring revival to the world.”

Contrary to Hazlett’s optimistic prediction, there was no victory for the Brazilian team. There was no worldwide revival stemming from a Brazilian revival as a result of a Brazilian victory in the World Cup.

Besides, socialist Rousseff took advantage of the Cup euphoria to pass a law banning spanking, effectively criminalizing Christian parents who, in obedience to God’s Word, discipline their children. This was a massive defeat — not victory — to the Brazilian family. In fact, the Brazilian team had its worst defeat ever.

Hazlett’s prophecy was far away from perfection.

Why then are a multitude of Brazilian evangelicals using his another prophecy to vote for the Soros-backed socialist Marina Silva?

Hazlett’s prophecy said: “I am removing the Mordecai spirit that tries to controls the women in this nation and I am going to raise up a woman after My heart and I am going to shake this nation.”

The most important mission of Esther was to protect her people and their interests. In this mission, she was under the influence of Mordecai. Was his influence positive or negative? Positive. Mordecai was a man of God. Without him, Esther would never have defended God’s people the way she did.

If Hazlett had prophesied that God was going to remove the Karl Marx spirit that controls men and women in Brazil, including Catholics and evangelicals, I would understand. The Marxist influence is negative. This influence is an important component of the political militancy of Marina Silva, seen by Brazilian evangelicals as their “messiah” because of Hazlett’s prophecy. In an interview with Caio Fábio in 2010, Marina said that the Marxist Liberation Theology is the “living gospel.”

Caio, formerly the greatest Presbyterian minister in Brazil, was supportive of Silva in 2010 and 2014, including as an adviser. Caio, who disgraced himself in financial and sexual scandals years ago, was the strategic evangelical leader who in the 1990s connected the evangelical population with the socialist Workers’ Party, where Marina had her militancy and became an environment secretary during the Lula administration.

Marina left the Workers’ Party when the 2010 presidential candidacy of her party was given not to her, but to Dilma Rousseff.

Now the current prophecy-inflamed, Marina Silva campaign has been championed by Valnice Milhomens, a female apostle who, in 1994, hosted, with Caio Fábio, an evangelical TV show introducing socialist Lula to the evangelical population.

Caio’s intent, as reported by him later, was to connect evangelicals with Lula — a successful project, because in his first election to the Brazilian presidency Lula was supported by all the major evangelicals leaders in Brazil, equally stirred by strange prophecies and visions that his administration would bring advances to Brazil. Actually, in the first year of the Lula administration, Brazil introduced in the United Nations the first resolution classifying homosexuality as an unalienable human right. Milhomens was unable to see prophetically Caio’s intent, but she is sure that, prophetically, Marina is now God’s intent.

Hazlett’s mentions of a puppet president and strings have been interpreted as applying only to Rousseff and Lula. By the interpretation of Mordecai as a supposedly “negative” influence, deserving removal, you could also include Esther as a “puppet.” In fact, Hazlett’s prophecy treated the “Mordecai spirit” as if it were a harmful spirit to women, when this “spirit” brought wisdom and strategy to Esther.

But what about Marina Silva and Karl Marx? What about her and Caio Fábio? What about her and George Soros? Are there no strings in all of this? Is there no puppet in these relationships? Why to remove a Mordecai spirit, but not a Marx, Caio and Soros spirit?

Esther’s submission to Mordecai was a blessing, not curse.

Immediately connected with the prophetic behavior in the Christians meetings is Paul’s teaching about female behavior in these meetings:

“Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others weigh what is said. If a revelation is made to another sitting there, let the first be silent. For you can all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn and all be encouraged, and the spirits of prophets are subject to prophets. For God is not a God of confusion but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints, the women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be in submission, as the Law also says.” (1 Corinthians 14:29-34 ESV)

Paul explains that Biblical submission is protection:

“For this reason, and because the angels are watching, a woman should wear a covering on her head to show she is under authority.” (1 Corinthians 11:10 NLT)

“Because of the angels” — my understanding is that without Biblical submission, there are spiritual breaches for intrusions of demonic forces, also known as fallen angels.

With Biblical submission, God’s angels watch over the obedient.

Surely, Esther was a blessed woman, truly protected by God’s angels, because she lived according to this principle.

Now, what about Hazlett’s prophecy being used to portray Marina Silva as a Brazilian Esther, deserving the Brazil presidency — but “delivered” only from Mordecai, not from Marx, Caio and Soros? His prophecies — just as the prophecies of all other Christians — should be evaluated, as commanded by Apostle Paul.

What about Marina as Esther?

Perhaps she might win the election and become president of Brazil.

Perhaps she might eventually become an Esther too.

But first, she needs to let God remove the Marx, Caio and Soros spirits, and any other spirits, including Liberation Theology.

Yet, how do she and Hazlett expect her to be successful and a woman after God’s heart if they want to remove Mordecai — the positive influence of a man of God — from her life?

Brazil’s child sex workers forced to cash in on World Cup

BRAZILIAN kids as young as 10 are being forced to sell themselves for sex on the streets to cash in on the hundreds of thousands of soccer fans heading to the World Cup, a shocking investigation has revealed.

As soccer fans descend on Brazil for the tournament this week, evil pimps are exploiting young children who are hopelessly addicted to crack cocaine and living on the streets, a report by British tabloid the Sunday People has revealed.

Sex trade ... with thousands of foreign tourists descending on Brazil this week, there are grave fears for the nation’s child prostiutes.

Young girls and boys high after sniffing glue openly sell themselves for sex on street corners in the city of Recife — which will host five matches — for as little as $4, the investigative report claims.

The problem is not just confined to Recife — child prostitution is endemic across the entire country.

To the north of Recife lies the beach resort city of Fortaleza, host to six World Cup matches and widely considered to a hotspot for child sex tourism

One factor that has allowed child prostitution to flourish in Brazil under the noses of police officers is that the country’s age of consent is 14.

Also, in 2012 a Brazilian court ruled that sex with a 12-year-old did not necessarily constitute statutory rape — a decision that Amnesty International blasted as “a green light for rapists.”

No future ... child prositution is rampant in Brazil, a problem many attribute to the lower age of consent. Source: Supplied

With 600,000 foreign soccer fans preparing to descend on the World Cup host nation this week, and 3 million Brazilian fans travelling around the country, there are grave fears the children’s plight will only get worse.

One child told the Sunday People how she regularly gets approached by dozens of men looking for sex — locals, tourists and taxi ­drivers.

Lorrisa, 13, said she sniffed strong industrial glue, which the locals kids call “cola”, to stave off hunger pangs.

“Sniffing the glue makes me feel dizzy and numb and it stops me feeling hungry so I don’t need to eat,” Lorrisa said.

“It helps me cope with the ­violence and danger on the streets.”

An older woman who has lived on the streets since the age of seven said the children of Recife are at risk from local men and tourists.

She pointed out one boy aged 10 who had been forced into prostitution.

She said: “The children go with the men because they are high on drugs or need more money to buy drugs.

“They use drugs to numb the pain of the sexual abuse, become addicted then need to sell themselves over and over again to raise the money.”

Critics of Brazil’s Goverment say officials have pushed the child sex trade out of sight, but haven’t done enough to eradicate its root causes. They warn underage prostitution could explode during the World Cup.

“These girls come from extreme poverty, a culture of social exclusion and a tradition of profound disrespect for women,” Antonia Lima Sousa, a state prosecutor, told CNN.

The scourge of child prostitution “involves a whole tourism network, from agencies to hotels to taxis,” she says. “With these mega events, sexual exploitation is also going to be organised much more via the internet.”

At risk ... with the World Cup coming there are fears human traffickers will target children. Source: Supplied

Despite promises to eradicate child prostitution, the number of estimated child sex workers in Brazil stands at about half a million, according to the non-profit National Forum for the Prevention of Child Labour.

Last month, a global network of religious orders against human trafficking launched a campaign against child prostitution during the World Cup.

“In Brazil, our greatest concern is linked to the increase in the exploitation of child prostitution,” said Sister Gabriella Bottani, an Italian nun who is an organiser of the coalition involving 240 religious congregations from 79 countries.

She said international sporting events attract human traffickers, who trick jobseekers into slave labour and also kidnap children for illegal adoptions or forced begging.

Footballers have also taken a stand against child exploitation in the It’s a Penalty campaign, which features Brazil’s David Luiz and was launched by former England captain Gary Lineker.

Sadly, it’s a long way from the streets where life is cheap and children can be sold for next to nothing.

And it’s a world away from the street corners where 14-year-old Calliem has been selling her body from sex since the age of 11.

“I have sex so many times with men and they only pay me five Brazilian real,” she told the Sunday People.

World Cup warning over child prostitution with girls as young as 11 forced to walk the streets of Brazil targeting foreign tourists for sex

Traffickers Offering Flight, Hotel, World Cup — and Sex Slave — for $12,000

Brazilian Nightmare: World Cup, Spanking and Abortion

By Julio Severo

For foreigners coming to Brazil for the World Cup, this mega-football event often spells “sex tourism.” But for Brazilians, it’s the old Roman appeasement politics of “bread and circuses.” Give football to Brazilians and they will forget their social and moral woes — at least for a while.

The special reason the Brazilian government under socialist President Dilma Rousseff has staged the World Cup is for Brazilian to overlook the consequences of her ill-fated politics and planned woes.

In the recent few days, with Brazil under the spell of the World Cup, Brazilian hospitals had been put under an order to make abortions easy. Under a new abortion law approved immediately after the Pope’s visit last year, women can require medical abortion by merely alleging rape — with no need of medical or police evidence.

The order was revoked by heavy pressure of Catholic groups and the Evangelical Parliamentary Caucus.

Yet, other planned woe had no such attention. For more than one decade, socialists in Brazil have been working hard to ban parental spanking.

Their recent efforts were successful in the Brazilian House of Representatives and in the Brazilian Senate.

The strategy to get it approved in the Brazilian Congress was to make a scandalous appeal, by comparing parental spanking to child killing. This is interesting, because the Brazilian government and socialist politicians endorse child killing — through legal abortion. But if you say that abortion is murder, they will answer that you are making a “scandalous appeal”!

Murder is murder. Abortion is murder of children, but socialists reject such comparison. Parental spanking is not murder, but socialists keep making such comparison.

Maria do Rosário, the main anti-spanking activist, had been a “human rights” secretary in the Rousseff administration, but she remained in office only until her flaunting stance last year, by declaring that the “murder” of a young homosexual was a “homophobic” crime. She inflamed it into a national scandal, calling for harsh laws against “homophobic” people, pressuring law-enforcement agencies to prioritize crimes against homosexuals, etc. She left the office after it was found that the young homosexual did not have been murdered. He had committed suicide after his male lover rejected him.

Yet, the case against parental spanking was successful. Rosário and other socialists said that child killing is provoked by parental spanking, and the Brazilian media repeated the mantra to all Brazilians. The victory came after a Brazilian boy was murdered by his father and stepmother, and the socialist chorus began: “Parental spanking amounts to murder.”

The Congressional hearings had other scandalous appeals. Xuxa — a Brazilian television presenter, film actress, singer and businesswoman — was invited to back the anti-spanking bill. What does Xuxa have to teach Brazilian parents? In fact, why is she so engaged in a bill aimed at seizing parental rights and destroying their decisions over their children?

Xuxa has no acceptable parental example. By choice, she has never been married, but she has been a lover of several men. She has only a daughter and for this pregnancy, she chose a man just for her to have a child. Nothing else. By her choice, her daughter was brought up without her father.

In 1982, as a 19-year-old, Xuxa appeared in the Brazilian movie “Amor Estranho Amor” (Love Strange Love). Her role was to seduce a 12-year-old boy. The scene contained eroticism and pedophilia: a nude young woman with a nude boy in the bed.

Xuxa has never served time in prison for her pedophilic act. On the contrary, in the 1980s she had her nude body as a cover picture in the Brazilian Playboy magazine.

Parents who murder their children should be punished. People who encourage pedophilia through movies should be punished. Parents who spank their children, with a rod or a slap, should not be treated as criminals, especially under the bad example of a woman with no moral guidance and parental example.

The Brazilian tragedy is that since Brazil became a signatory of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1990, there is no legal punishment for criminals under 18 years old. Minors can beat and murder their parents, and there will be no jail or sentence. Just special rehabilitation. Law-enforcement agents are prohibited from treating as criminal minors who rape, assault and murder.

Days ago a Brazilian man, who is an Assembly of God minister today, told me that he was an city official supervising troubled minors in Brazil. He told that it was a nightmare, because they dealt with 15, 16 and 17-year olds who raped and murdered, but legally they were unpunishable. Their state rehabilitation was a failure. The minister told me that less than 4% had some improvement. Today he lives in America, where he told me he has seen criminals treated as criminals, regardless their age.

I also prefer the U.S. system, because, where conservatism is predominant, is less barbaric than the legal system in Brazil. Other Brazilian friend of mine, who is a Presbyterian minister in Texas, told me that when he was going to spank his son, he said, “If you spank me, I will denounce you to police!” In Brazil, this is enough to make a parent frightened. But the wise father himself called and police came. After hearing the boy and the father, the policeman just instructed the father on the better ways to use a slipper or belt to punish the boy. Needless to say, the boy never again wanted police involved.

Thank God, this was Texas, not Brazil! Texas, which is more conservative than other more liberal U.S. states where parents also face risks, is a place I would definitely choose to live, if they intend to keep pursuing a social life free from UN insanities!

In contrast, the Evangelical Parliamentary Caucus (EPC), which is a pro-life force in the Brazilian Congress, has made a repulsive deal with the government and its socialist supporters to have the anti-spanking bill passed. Many of the members of the EPC are socialists too. The Catholic Church in Brazil, for many years backing socialist measures in Brazil, has made no opposition to the government efforts to confiscate parental rights over the spanking issue.

This is the Brazilian nightmare: children and teens who assault, rape and murder are legally unpunishable.

This is the Brazilian nightmare: parents who spank, with a rod or a slap, to try to hinder their children and teens from becoming criminals who assault, rape and murder will be legally punishable, and they will be treated as criminals and child killers, while the real child killers (abortionists) will be legally unpunishable.

There is no epidemics of children murdered by parents in Brazil. But there is an epidemics of children and teens raping, assaulting and murdering. As ever, unpunishable.

Psychopathic socialists and their laws in Brazil essentially say: “Do not spank your children to hinder them from becoming criminals. Abort them! We allow you to abort them, but not to discipline them, ok?”

Try to homeschool your children in Brazil, and the government will ferociously go after you. Spank them, and there will be no state pardon. But make their criminal ways easy, and you will be left alone.

Visit São Paulo or other big city in Brazil and you will see a sad picture: an 8-year old girl or boy begging in the streets, day or night, while the Brazilian government is very busy chasing spanking parents.

The World Cup helps Brazilians forget momentarily their social nightmare.

World Cup warning over child prostitution with girls as young as 11 forced to walk the streets of Brazil targeting foreign tourists for sex

Traffickers Offering Flight, Hotel, World Cup — and Sex Slave — for $12,000

When a father does not discipline his child

Traffickers Offering Flight, Hotel, World Cup — and Sex Slave — for $12,000

Heather Sells and Efrem Graham/CBN News

Brazil hopes to attract more than half a million fans for this summer's World Cup and take in billions of tourism dollars. 

Sex traffickers are also planning to take an already profitable market there and make it even more lucrative this year. Their perverse business model links world class soccer with child sexual exploitation.

"You can go online and see $12,000, $10,000 for the flight, the hotel, the game—and the girl," Diego Traverso, Latin America anti-trafficking programs manager for Operation Blessing, told CBN News.

Many believe that showing just how trafficking affects children to both tourists and Brazilians before the games even start is the best way to fight it.

That's the idea behind a documentary that CBN’s Operation Blessing will release next month in Brazil.

"We're trying to raise the stigma against this and educate the people coming in for the World Cup that this isn't just a service you can buy without consequences, that these are children trapped in a hell," David Darg, vice president of International Operations for Operation Blessing, explained.

"We see kids, talking 12 or 11 if you haven't lost your virginity at 11 you're wrong—something's wrong with you," he continued. "I see many, many cases of mothers selling their daughters like to neighbors, on the street, taking them to the street, teaching them kind of the business, to survive."

Traverso said this twisted mindset combined with poverty created the perfect storm in Brazil, which now carries an international reputation for child sex trafficking.

Operation Blessing hopes to air its documentary on Brazilian national television, and will also produce a short video for airlines bringing World Cup fans to the games.

The aid group is also working with other ministries to reach fans directly at the venues and speak out against the tragedy of trafficking.
